Quality Coffee from Guatemala
The coffee growing region of Black Dog Coffee Roasters is located in eastern Guatemala along the border with Mexico. The ideal climate and clay and metamorphic volcanic soils result in high-quality coffee with a distinct flavor profile. These conditions create beans that are rich, aromatic, and full of character, making them a favorite among coffee connoisseurs.
A Commitment to Quality
From selecting the best beans to roasting them with care, Black Dog Coffee Roasters ensures that every step of the process is handled with precision. This commitment to quality is what sets them apart in the competitive coffee market.

A Unique Space
Once a working fire station from 1971 to 1989, Station 3 has been transformed into a unique space filled with art and surrounded by nature. It is the perfect setting for enjoying a great cup of coffee while appreciating the beauty of the surroundings.
